Stop Making Excuses For Terror

Please read this moving and important essay, "Daniel Pearl and the Normalization of Evil: When will our luminaries stop making excuses for terror?" by Judea Pearl, the father of Daniel Pearl, who was beheaded seven years ago this week.

Let Bill Moyers know that his purported "evenhandedness" is tantamount to justifying the same terrorism that robbed Daniel Pearl of his life. (email for Moyers below).

Let Jimmy Carter know that his rationalization of Hamas' actions is no different than defending Nazism (email for Carter below).

Let the New York Times know that its inability to tell the difference between Hamas butchery and the State of Israel is the equivalent of saying that Daniel Pearl's executioners were blameless (email for the Times below).

Let the Chancellor of UCLA know that the American public will not support taxpayers' money going to campus-sponsored Hamas hate fests. (email below)

Let the White House, the U.S. Senate and Congress know that the leaders of radical American Islamic groups such as the Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR) and the Muslim Public Affairs Council (MPAC) are not welcome in the White House or Congress and should not be legitimized by the FBI, Department of Justice, Department of Homeland Security because they refuse to condemn Hamas and Hezbollah by name.
